It took Solomon three days and three nights to reach the royal city by a bumpy steam train from King's Station in Wales.

As soon as he got out of the car, he was amazed by the floating islands in the sky, and the giant distortion of Lalaye, which was several kilometers in the sky, was even more shocking.

People come and go, but they turn a blind eye to the heavenly things, as if they don't exist.

"Damn, how do the people of Wangcheng look used to this thing."

The mountain-like body was casting a large shadow on the royal city, where there was actually no sunny day, only cloudy sky.

If he had this thing hanging on his head, he would definitely not be able to sleep at night.

Just as he looked at Lalaye's true form, a voice sounded in his ears: "Are you Mr. Solomon?" ”

He turned his head to look for the owner of the voice, a woman in her early twenties, a little over a meter six, with long blond hair, standing next to a luxurious steam car, whom Solomon was sure he had never seen.

"It's me."

The woman nodded and explained, "I'm Margaret Chauvin, and Professor Alice asked me to come here to pick you up. ”

As soon as Margaret mentioned Alice's name, Solomon seemed to realize it, and hurriedly dragged his luggage into the car.

Margaret didn't speak much along the way, and Solomon, bored, asked, "Why do you call Alice Professor?" Are you her occult student, strange, I remember Alice not divination for years. ”

Margaret responded, "Lady Alice is now a professor at the college, and she is her student. ”

Solomon nodded, he just pretended to understand, after all, he didn't go to school, he didn't know what the academy meant.

Maybe it's a whole bunch of witches gathered to study the occult, Solomon guessed.

He suddenly said with great nostalgia: "I haven't seen Abel for many years, and I don't know what he has grown up to become." ”

Margaret smiled, and she said, "He's still him, nothing has changed." ”

"Do you know Abel? Oh, by the way, Abel also went to that academy by Mera, so you two are classmates. ”

"Yes, Mr. Solomon."

"I thought Alice would open a phantom door to pick me up, but I never expected someone to greet me in person."

"Look at what you said, Professor Alice can't pull away from her, that's why she asked me."

As Solomon listened, he noticed that Margaret had driven the steam cart into a quiet street where sunlight could be seen, and rows of houses were on either side, and there were many large squirrels in the trees beside the road.

He couldn't help asking, "Where is this, you can actually see the light spilling down." ”

Margaret answered, and then smiled and pointed to Abel's residence and said, "Here, this is Lieyang Street, as you said, now this is one of the few places where you can soak up the sun in the royal city." The No. 1 house where the Abel family lives now" she said and suddenly paused, turned the steering wheel with the handwheel, and finally parked the steam car in the deepest part of Lieyang Street: "This is it, we have successfully reached our destination - Abel!" Here comes Mr. Solomon. ”

As she said the last few words, she shouted a few times towards the house.

Shortly after Abel returned from his Whitsunday duty at the college, he received news that Uncle Solomon was coming here informed by Alice, so he had been waiting for a long time.

When he heard Margaret's cry, he walked briskly out of the house and waved his hand at Solomon.

Solomon in the car sighed: "This kid has really grown up. ”

He got out of the car slowly, held Abel's hand and couldn't speak for a long time, how could he explain all the things he had experienced in the past eight years in two or three sentences.

All he could say in the end was, "Long time no see, Abel." After saying that, he gave him a strong hug before letting go for a long time.

Abel: "Long time no see, Uncle Solomon, Aunt Alice will be back later, let's rest for a while." ”

Solomon actually looked flattered, and hurriedly said, "Okay, good." ”

Seeing that Margaret was not moving, Abel asked, "What's wrong with you, why didn't you come in with you?" ”

Margaret was stunned for a moment, and became as flattered as Solomon, and walked in.

Solomon walked into the house with his luggage, he took off his hat and wondered: "This decoration is the same as the real touch of the Messiah, I didn't expect Mei to be so nostalgic." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Solomon's sword hanging on the wall, and his heart was even more emotional, and May finally found the sword back, but its owner was not yet.

"Yo, the drunkard has arrived? What a rarity. ”

Mei, who had also just returned, saw him walk in, and did not forget to taunt him like an old friend.

Although the two haven't seen each other for many years, they are very familiar with the quarrel.

Solomon laughed and responded, "I don't come, because I'm afraid that you won't be able to end yourself up as a widow." ”

Mei also laughed, covered her mouth and scolded: "Fuck you, say something nice, Francis is still alive and well." ”

Margaret first became extremely nervous when she saw what May said, thinking that they were very bad with each other, and then realized that this might be their unique way of communicating.

Able watched them reminisce, and led Margaret to the large library of the Moon House, where she was overwhelmed by the scene.

"It's no secret anymore, find a place to sit, Mother looks like she's going to talk to them for a while."

Outside, Solomon sat on the soft sofa and said unceremoniously: "Mei, please make some black tea, can you, I'm dying of thirst after three days on that broken train." ”

Mei said that she was not free now, so she threw over a teacup and poured some overnight tea and said, "Do you like to drink it?" ”

Solomon sniffed the smell and frowned, shrugged his shoulders senselessly, and finally drank it.

Just then, Ludendale stepped down the stairs, and May explained, "This is an acquaintance of Francis, and it seems that he has come to see Alice." ”

As soon as she came home, she found the stranger sleeping on the couch and almost opened fire on him with her Pfister musket, only to wake up in time for Ludendale to explain his identity.

He had to sigh that Francis's wife, whose personality was really impressive, seemed to shoot without hesitation if she stumbled a little bit.

Ludendale greeted, "You must be Solomon, Francis mentioned you to me, trustworthy fellow,"

Solomon took the teacup and drank the tea, and then said, "You were also called by Alice, so I have a question, what did she bring us here for?" Solving a Celtic doesn't take such a big battle. ”

He could feel that Ludendal's extraordinary power had reached a very high stage, and it seemed to be a phoenix derivation, and Alice was definitely not looking for such a big man to fill the scene.

Ludendale shook his finger and corrected, "It's not Alice who brought us here. With that, he pointed his finger to the sky: "It was Francis who brought us here." ”

May listened to this and quietly focused her attention, Francis? When she first met Ludendall, he didn't mention it.

Solomon crossed his legs and said impatiently, "Well, I'm starting to understand what you're saying now. ”

If it was to save Francis, he wanted this eccentric guy to say it quickly.

Ludendale kept his mouth shut, closed his eyes and waited for someone to arrive, there was still one person left, and when everyone who should have come came, he would naturally open his mouth to explain.

Sure enough, a phantasmagoric door lit up in the house, and Alice rushed back, having been busy tracking down the Duke of Celtic lately.

"Solomon is coming? Count, can you be earlier, I'm almost thankful for the flowers I've been waiting for. ”

Everyone was together, and Ludendowl, who was standing behind the sofa, laughed, and he said: "First of all, I thank Francis for not giving up and not giving up, and your efforts are about to be rewarded." He looked at Alice and continued, "Miss Dreamer, is the third machine you built complete?" ”

Alice nodded: "I just made it two days ago, but Richard can't figure out how to use that thing." ”

Ludendale nodded: "As long as it is made, I will leave the rest to me, do you remember the memory carrier of Francis that you kept at the beginning?" ”

Alice dispelled her illusion door and said in a sullen voice, "Of course, but I have traveled all over the world, and I can't find a suitable container. ”

"Of course, you can't find it, but an extraordinary machine can build one."

Mei on the side immediately asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Ludendall stretched out his hands: "Welcome to the Eden Project, the initiators are me and Francis, the full name of the third machine is Gestalt Difference Machine, and there is a string of codes that will make the best doll in the world - steam robots!" ”

Alice seemed to understand something, and her eyes widened for a moment.

Ludendale continued: "It's the perfect container to hold Francis's memories, but he has to get used to being a robot. ”

Like a stand-in, like a reflection of the goddess of death on earth, this robot will exist in reality as Francis.

Mei immediately questioned: "What about my man's body?" It's useless to just build a robot, even if you build it" May gritted her teeth in extreme dissatisfaction and continued: "It doesn't deserve to be called Francis."

Ludendale waved his hand: "Okay, we can call it Mr. Alpha first, anyway, if you want to see the real Francis return, you need to allow the production of machine containers." ”

Mei clenched her hands tightly, and after a long time, she nodded very reluctantly, but still said with a tough attitude: "But it's not called Francis, it's just a robot, understand?" ”

Ludendale bowed in thanks, then said, "That's all you need to know about the Garden of Eden for the time being. ”
